I think there are a lot of quiet people out here, waiting to see.......The list could not have been discontinued, as we are having these exchanges. Question: Would anyone know if there is site/place where one could buy 'old' city directories or phone books for different states? To actually buy-to hold in hand? Does anyone reprint these? Or are these accessible online, at a library? Thank you for any ideas. Kathryn Rocha
Old phone books are available to view at the Detroit, Mi. Library (Burton). I would assume the same to be true for other major cities. My problem here in Michigan is that I'm 3 hours away from Detroit. Someday I will visit!

Thanks, Wolf. I have many ancestors from Germany, most of them brick walls. I've saved your site to Favorites and will explore later. Sharon
